We stayed there 12 nights in May and found the hotel to be generally clean, well-run, and most of the staff was nice and accommodating. We had a basement room which was enormous. The trade off was street noise, but that isn't bad on Montague st. the room was no frills but did have a sink. The shared bathroom was... more

The Ruskin is in a great location in Bloomsbury across the road from the British Museum. It's about 10 mins on foot from Euston and a short walk from both Russell Square and Holborn tube stations. Although the decor could really do with updating (very 70s in the room, shower & WCs & hotel breakfast room!) it was very clean... more

The Ruskin Hotel just might be the best deal in London, or at least in Bloomsbury. We've stayed there 3 times and have never been disappointed. True, the decor may be dated and the rooms rather small, but consider these positives: (1) the staff is very helpful and courteous, from the gentlemen at the front desk to the waitresses serving... more

My son and I stayed in a twin room for 5 nights (room 309) at the Ruskin. We were very busy seeing the sights and the hotel was an excellent jumping off point. Three Tube stops were nearby, and the entrance to the British Museum was literally around the corner. The hotel was well run, breakfast was excellent and quickly... more

This was my 2nd stay at the Ruskin. Attempted to book the same room, room 105, from the previous visit in October but was given a different room. For room 307, we paid £105 per night. Room had one double and one single bed. Ensuite bathroom was quite small. Although the room was clean and comfortable, the furniture is shabby.... more

This hotel was unbelievably overpriced. We were looking for something cheaper but thought we would at least be staying in a decent hotel having paid that much when booking. It wasn't clear when booking that we would have to share a bathroom. There was one shower for the whole floor which was tiny and unclean. The room was old and... more

This hotel is not a nice place to stay. The rooms are smelly and old, the bathroom was very tight, especialliy the shower. Rooms have no luxury at all: no TV, no proper closet. The bed is very hard. Overall the rooms look cheap. Only, all that would not be a problem if is the price was right. Only, they... more

Lovely hotel
